Found at recycling bin at 7-11 in Seoul, Korea.
“PET” stands for Polyethylene terephthtalate,
the plastic used in bottles.
“PETS” is incorrect usage of the abbreviation.

Incorrect spelling – should be PEST
The place where expired pets end up. Good for the environment for recycling.
A cat can be recycled 9 times
Because 95% of Fluffy can be reused.
This must be Petco because “it’s where pets go.”
I covered my cats eyes so he couldn’t see this.
Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish.
… because it’s difficult to flush dogs and cats down the toilet…
But no Great Danes, please.
Ouch! There’s one still alive in there! it bit me!
Successor to the Ronco Bat-O-Matic
I guess that’s what they call a trash can for Recyclabowwows only.
Kitty litter…
But what about the sign on the door that says “Prohibit the animal, unless it permits a person without sight or hearing”…?
Do pet rocks count?
Perfect – I’ve been keeping my pet mouse in a pop bottle!
Korea’s One-Pet policy reveleaed! D8
Help keep dogs out of junkyards. Recycle your pets today!
finally, my toilets been clogged up from dead goldfish.

Hey, why does my dog soup have this weird metallic taste to it?
If this is a recycling bin, then WHAT exactly do you reuse the pets for??????? My guess: Hairpieces.
Wow, they can recycle anything now.
Honey can you toss the kimchee, and fluffy in the trash…both smell bad.
“Sorry the humane societies full up, at least you know your pet won’t end up in a landfill”
@ rowger Eleventybillion internets to you, sir/madam!
There’s one of these at Union Station. They don’t allow carrion luggage on the train !!
It’s hard to keep real pets in Japan, so maybe this is where all those annoying Tamagotchi’s ended up…
…They ended up in Korean recycling bins, too.
I wouldn’t order the soup. I just saw the chef with a box marked stuff next to that..
Feed me cats
wait.. i’m not quite sure it’s incorrect abbreviation.
I think they just put the korean on the left side into a translator, but because the bottom row didn’t have a dot separating the two, the translator probably read it as one word, which, together, makes up the sounds for the english word: “pet”..
RE-CYCLED GREEN PETS
This probably isn’t Engrish, as PET is a kind of plastic bottle. Barring that, it may be that Korea is tapping into a new market of animal recycling. When eating in a foreign land, I suggest ensuring that nothing you bite into has an old leash hanging from it.
Taking the circle of life to a whole new meaning
I should use this service more often…
Ya, when fido is done, you now have a handy place to recycle him.. what will they think of next?
well… it beats flushing them down the toilet or burying them in the backyard…
